I have the pleasure of visiting Whyalla every now and then for work. The Quest is just across the…read moreroad from work so it's super convenient, particularly in times when I fly in and have no car. But work is pretty much the only thing it is convenient too. There is a small shopping strip close by but everything closes by 6pm. The only place I found close by to eat was the Bayview Hotel who thankfully were happy to do takeaway for me so I didn't have to spend every night in the pub. The closest supermarket is a 5km round trip so it's okay to walk there (over a massive hill) but it's hard to carry home a lot of groceries. The apartments themselves are quite lovely. Better than what I was expecting as the outside is fairly run down. The reception is unstaffed so you need to get your room key out of a secure box. My key code had been entered incorrectly so I had to call someone to assist me. That was the only contact I had with anyone from Quest for my entire stay. I left my key in a box on the way out. It is a serviced apartment so you have a full kitchen with all the crockery and utensils you will need. The microwave is in the cupboard above the fridge... took me a few days to figure that one out. The couch and bed are all comfy and the servicing is sufficient. The best thing is the bathroom. Lovely big bath to relax in after a hard day. Despite the front doors being secure and you needing a key to enter, the carpark was open to the street with no security on the doors from the carpark. Anyone could just walk on through. This made me feel a bit uncomfortable during a week where there was a murder in town......

I eat based on a Paleo diet. Hubby suggested eating at The New Whyalla Hotel. I of course asked him…read moreif they had a Gluten Free menu and he said "Google it". After Googling it and finding it contained a Cafe Primo I no longer wished to go out. He advised me it was no longer a Cafe Primo but it's own restaurant. If we did not like the menu we could go elsewhere. We pulled up outside and there was nothing I could see that indicated they had a restaurant. Once through the doors to the lounge we were met at the bar by a lovely man who showed us the menu, understood about food allergies and intolerances and gained clarification for us on our food choices. We were then shown through to our table. We declined the free soft drink option for our daughter and also the free ice cream for later (great for those that want it). We just had filtered water. Hubby ( not Paleo) chose the fish of the day with chips and salad. Daughter had chicken tenderloins grilled, salad and gluten free chips, they even made her a fresh serve if aioli to ensure no gluten. I ordered the Lamb salad. All meals were lovely. So much so hubby stuck his head into the kitchen to thank the chef. We will be back, thanks for providing food items for finickety customer
